I'm having trouble reading the typecast because I don't know how to view it at comfortable readable size. But I'll barge in anyway, in semi-ignorance, to say that (a) KMM's are wonderful typewriters, and (b) come on, everyone has room for a KMM and everyone has room for more than four typewriters (I did read that much, Sophia). I own 266 typewriters and am still finding ways to pack more of them in!

Thanks for reposting, it's very readable now (and entertaining). I didn't realize you were in Columbus; maybe you can come down to Cincinnati for a typewriter event sometime, or vice versa. Good luck with the novel!

I have the perfect portable for you. Well, nothing is perfect. I need to clean it. A Royal Crescent that is small, light, and fits in an over the shoulder carrier that is about the size of one for a laptop PC. Then I may end up with a spare Noiseless Model 7 and those are nice for one needing a place where a typewriter is not to be heard.
